Abstract
A slow wave structure named Pi - line is analysed in this paper. This circuit propagates slow waves in symmetrical and antisymmetrical mode. The dispersion relations of both symmetrical and antisymmetrical mode s are derived here, by means of the field matching method. Numerical r esults are also given in this paper. The Pi - line slow wave structure is of large diameter, and its radial supported stubs provide good hea t conduction paths. These properties make this circuit well suited for use in high power, millimeter wave traveling wave tubes.
